SIZE SELECTION

The ORD is offered in two sizes; Small and Large. To ensure correct
selection and optimal function from the ORD, select the appropriate size
as follows:
Size
Small
Large
Note: All circumference measurements are taken over dressings and
padding material. The ORD should not be used for larger residual limbs
than indicated above. The ORD should extend at least 15 cm (6") above
the knee. Distance from Perineum to distal end of residual limb should
be at least 50 cm (20")

APPLICATION OF THE ORD
The ORD should be applied to the residual limb over wound dressings
and appropriate padding material immediately after the operation. The
initial application of the ORD requires two persons.
Note: The ORD should not be in direct contact with the skin at any point.
Bandaging should be used but excessive padding material applied to the
limb may reduce the function of the ORD.
Apply an absorbing wound dressing and wrap the residual limb
thoroughly with synthetic under cast padding for cushioning and
moisture absorption.
1. Lay out the ORD and straighten out the shells before applying it to
the residual limb (Figure 1).
2. One person lifts the residual limb while the second person places the
posterior shell (the wider one) of the ORD underneath.
Ensure that the distal end of the residual limb is placed centered on
the distal shell (Figure 2).
